Glasner Out

[JHB]

Well yeah that’s a gimme to ‘field’ your strongest team, But when you are only a goal behind 20 odd minutes left, and have players on the bench that may ( or may not granted) change the game. Your on pitch players are tired what do you do. Yup that’s right leave the tired players on to get more tired and carry on with the same old thing !

The whole Sunderland thing was pretty unforgivable really. Do a press conference the day before where you announce you are leaving. Some sources say he did this without telling the club he was going to.

Rock up to Sunderland and refuse to make any subs in a game you could get a point from. Do a further press conference where you implicitly tell a lot of the squad the are rubbish, attack the board and say you don’t care if you get sacked. Have the hypocrisy to blame the board for destabilising the team by selling a player before a match when you’ve just destabilised the whole club by saying you are leaving.

I still think that was all an attempt to get sacked. I want people at the club who care about Palace doing as well as we can. That whole debacle showed me OG isn’t one of those people

Re Sunderland he would have been cleverer to put 3 or 4 on the pitch and we get gubbed. There is the proof about the lack of quality. Without even attempting a change is very poor and pretty dim for someone assumed so learned.
Albeit on Sunday he brings on Uche and sosa and they both give a decent show.!
I don’t get it tbh. S P has called his bluff and fair play. If we lose the next 2 though there is no way he stays.

Interestingly and true to type in his latest interview he back tracked on the criticism and admitted he had an extreme emotional response to being told Guehi was going before the Sunderland game. Even admitted he has a tendency to react emotionally and recognise afterwards that it’s not the wisest thing. Ive no idea what he was like as a player and whether he was fiery and prone to red cards but I still think he has control problems since his head injury. When things are going well he appears very calm and sensible. Whether he can control his emotions and make sensible decisions in the stress of a relegation battle will determine his ability to stay in the job til the end of the season.

Which is what OG has been doing all season - not just recently. Even when he had a reasonably strong bench he was still reluctant to give bench players more than a few minutes.

I think the main issue with Glasner has been the lack of clarity over whether he was staying. Even Lanzo wanted him to sign a new deal at the end of December. Now we know he's leaving he has to get results as there is no longer any future for him at the club, regardless of whether people think he is a good manager or not. The Chelsea result was probably to be expected, but the next four games you would have to say that 6 points is the minimum expectation. Get 7 or more and we're basically safe. Get 3 or fewer and we're in a relegation scrap and I think Parish might be forced to act. Weirdly, we're actually 4 points better off at this stage of the season than we were last season, even if it doesn't feel like it right now.

I did, some stability, and i was under the impression, as OG said that there were going to have negotiations in late January, not knowing the decision had been made in October.
